Samba De Amigo is on the very top of my most wanted list. I could maybe pick up a copy of the US version then get those cheaper Cha la Maracas off Ebay...but I'd rather have that beautiful boxset Sega did. DROOL.

The cha cha maracas aren't too hot. They sometimes register an up movement when I move them down and are very inaccurate. Very iffy compared to the Sega ones but just about acceptable as a second pair for 2 players - which is really good fun... until you start losing points when your cha cha's do the opposite to what you're doing.

I have 2 old 3d party controllers and just ordered 2 new controllers from Lik Sang. Very happy with the old one but they aren't very accurate when it comes to height ! Are the original Sega ones 100% accurate? At all times?

Yeah, I think they are. I haven't once had a problem with my officials. And damn, they're durable, more than once I've gotten too into Take on Me, Open Your Heart, or Super Sonic Racing and accidently bashed them together or something.

Random fact, did you guys know that David Bowie did Volare in V2k? Damn I had no clue.

Anyway, yeah, Samba is the best game ever with the maracas. I prefer V2k, but I own and love both. Also, I love playing with the controller too. Don't know why, but it doesn't bother me.

If you have a pair of maracas I recommend using them on Mr. Driller and Rez. Fun-ness.
